Bilstein Shock Absorbers for '85 ur quattro - Page 2

geneandbolly · 19-06-13, 10:34 PM

so it would be fair to say, gents, that the boge (how do you even pronounce that?!) are the ones to go for here? i'm not doing anything daft with the car and doubt if i'd notice the difference between them and the fancy ones.

saying that, i do distinctly remember feeling ill with the bilsteins that used to be on my mk2 capri - talk about SHOCKING !!

(looking for a wee face that looks like it's gonna puke !!)

You would definitely notice the difference between the two.

If you go for Billies, use Eurocarperformace.

They don't fit, they are about 1cm too long.

These are the dampers listed for ur? I have just checked with MSW, and they have just contacted bilstein. And the odd question that came back was does it have 50mm dia. Or 55mm dia. Dampers on the rear...
